WINoNA REPUBLICAN, The late
legislature in Maine enacted a new IL
quor law more stringent than any be-
fore. It provides that person selling
liquor shall be imprisoned for the first
efense, that procuring United States
license for selling liquor shall be evil
dence that the firm procuring it has sold
liquor in violation Of law, and that con-
stables shall be appointed to look out.
for lawbreakers and collect evidence
against them. The law went into effect
on the 18th inst, and now is in force.
But the new law appears to be no bet
ter than the old in suppressing the Ii.
quor traffic. As an experiment it is q
failure. Bangor, as the telegraphic
dispatches inform us, has 200 saloons
running every day, and the hotels have
open bars. In other cities the law is
! likewise disregarded. It is enforced
in small places and in the country,
where public sentiment is in favor
OF temperance. It is not enforced
where public sentiment is opposed to
enforced abstinence. In other words.
the law is q .lgreat success where men
do not feel inclined to yiolate it, but
wheresthe disposition to drink exists, it
is failure now as it always has been.

.CHAs. Z. Roos, Managing Editor
Wednesday,, April ~. 1887.

In q lecture recently delivered before
the University Liberal Society, At Min
neapolis. the Rev. McGobrick an
aounced to an astonished world his dis
covery that the statements Of writer's
concerning the persecution Of Calico
are untrue and that the pictures Of his
misery are simply lies, because Gall
leo was pensioned by Pope Urban. s
Yes, he was pensioned, and must have
been one Of the happiest Of mortals on
this account. The fact that he was
compelled, under penalty Of death at
the stake, to recant in public his fool
ish notions Of a moving earth. as well
as the fact Of his Punishment to Siena
and, subsequently. to Arcetri. is too in
significant to be mentioned in .connec-
ton with the munifcence that kept
him from starving.

The children had a gloriously happy day At
night when they were all asleep, their mother
went from room to room, gazing with pure
thankfulness at each darling little sleeper,
so dear-ah, SO dear She sighed, then smil-
ed at the little porcelain vase in Willies
room, filled with sweet, wild flowers of his
own plucking.
Then she went to her own room, and tear
fully told "father" her terrible dream.
He kissed his wife's fair brow fondly, and
said, soothingly:
"Never mind, dear; we're all right now"
And they were. The timely warning was
not lost on the mothers heart, for she never
forgot how terribleit was when in dreams
she roamed from one empty, orderly room TO
another in quest of her children and could not
find them. And she resolved that she would
not wait to place white flowers in their hands
when the perfume could not reach the dulled
sense and their fading beauty would only
break her heart; the children should have
the flowers now, while their eyes were open
to behold them, and their hearts still alive
to all of earth's comforts and delights.
And we would that many another wife and
mother, who is drifting into habits of fret
fulness and nervousness through undue care
for the children's bodies rather than their
souls, "might dream this lady's dream"

Right Breathing.

Breathing through the open mouth is
practised for the most part only by "civiliz-
ed men. The aborigines of our country,
and the savage tribes elsewhere, always keep
the mouth tightly closed and breathe through
the nostrils.
Nature is wiser teacher than fashion, for
the primitive method ofbreathing is the best
one on every principle of hygiene There is
danger of severe injury 10 the bronchial tubes
and the delicate vessels of the lungs in pass
ing from the warm air of q house to anatmos-
phere In the neighborhood of zero, if the air
is taken directly into the lungs. By passing
1t through the nostrils the chill Is removed,
and tie shock from the sudden change escap-
ed.
Yet our readers will remember that Lieut..
Schwatka, In an article which we recently
published, said that in the most intense cold
of the Arctic regions, one must usually breathe
through the mouth.
II the modern germ theory Of the origin of
infectious diseases is true, breathing through
the nostrils is one of natures safeguards.
The hairs, which line the entrance to the
nostrils, may arrest the germs floating in the
air, and prevent their passage to the lungs,
and consequent absorption by the blood.
Parents ought to teach their children early to
breathe only through the nostrils.- Youths

They We're Not Responsible.

A story is told of a groceryman ofthe
shrewd old Yankee stock who, on. several &C.
casions, was surprised to find sums of money
in his sugar: Where it came from was q
mystery. 1t may have been hidden by slaves
for purpose, but for what 1t would be hard
to say. The store keeper, being too conscien-
tious to keep the money without trying to
find an owner, and likewise being very 10th
to give it up, hit on this plan to satisfy con-
science and keep the money. Going to the
merchants of whom he purchased the goods
he inquired whether they were responsible
for the sticks and stones and things that were
in it.
"No, sir" was the reply, "you must take
the sugar just as we receive 1t. We are not
responsible for anything In the barrels" 1t
Is needless to say that the storekeeper did
not press the matter.

There is voice that always speaks to me
In low melodious accents Ms hit and day;
Like to the far faint echo of the sea,
LAYING the golden sands with silv'ry spray
Above lifes tumult murmuring Away
So sweet, so soft,
Its tender cadence thrills my spirit ever,
And bears aloft
My soul on its inspiring grand endeavor.
Above the noise and turmoil of my life,
Above all jarring tones Ii sweetly breaks;
And hushing for awhile each sound OF strife,
A strain of heavenly melody awakes;
All care, all pain, for one brief moment takes.

Into the luminous heights of Gods forever,
Beyond the skies,
Upon the snowy pinious OF endeavor.
Sometimes darkness gathers DER the light,
A shadow lies between me and the stars.
And straining blindly upward through the night
am shut out by firm, unyielding bars;
But no discordant tone that music mars
So rich, so clear,
From earthly cares 1t doth my soul discover;
seem to hear
The voice OF God in that full, sweet endeavor.
Not unto petty aims it points, nor low;
Not to some barren cliff 1t guides my eyes,
But close to where the sun with steady glow
Breaks through the misty barrier of the skies
Unto the mount of God 1t bids me rise.
So sweet 1t falls,
1t doth expand into the grand forever
Ny prison walls,
And gives me strength to bear life's long endea-
vor.
